IHD-01 - Special G Denim Version

[Max Power]

Unsure wether to keep it…it's a nice piece, but XL might be a tad too large (unless I wear a hoodie underneath). Opinions?







Where's beatle when you need her? She was the most reliable one regarding fit judgement.

"too big" was actually the reason why I sold it!…if I get the IHD-01 again one day, I'm definitely going for a large and even then I still should be able to wear a shirt or a hoodie underneath!

I'd vote for "selling" matey!...just looks too big when worn alone!...that's just my two cents though...

I'm thinking of giving it a real hot wash..of course I know it has been washed hot in the dying process, but maybe a 70-80 degree wash might give it the tad shrinkage that would make it perfect? It worked perfectly on a FH Flannel and a Pike Brothers denim shirt for me. Opinions?

well those other two items haven't been od'ed in the first place, so o/course there was some more shrinkage left!…don't think that it gonna help, but you won't know unless you try it, right?

I do not think it will work, the OD process gives it a lot more grief than a hot wash will I am afraid.

[Max Power]

Ok, thanks for the input. Normally I'm not keen on washing my stuff over 40 degrees, I thought 90 degrees are hotter than the overdying process…Might give it a try though.

[Giles]

Won't do any harm….So give it a go.

I don't think the shirt looks too big actually. One size down and it would likely be too tight on your shoulders and mid-section. Length-wise, I can still see your arcs so it's not like it's a dress on anything. Seems like a decent size for an overshirt.

[Max Power]

Thanks. in fact, it's about an inch in the arms and body, the rest looks ok to me. plus I lost a few pounds due to illness. If a hot wash brings some minor effects, it might even be perfect.

don't think that it is a bad fit as of now, I see what you mean, but atm you have the option to layer it and if you are going down one this might not longer work, me thinking…

[Max Power]

True. So, I'll give it a 90 degree wash and see then… thanks for all your input

[Max Power]

I did a 95 degree wash and am quite satisfied with the outcome. The bodylength and shoulders shrank 2 cm, the chest 3cm, the arms 1 cm. I think the fit is now close to perfect, no?

(Excuse the 6 o clock out of bed look)

Max, it looks perfect. I liked it when you said it was too big. I love it post super frickin' hot wash. As always, you rock shit to the max.

[Max Power]

Thanks a lot man!

[Jordan23]

Yes, fit is perfect! This used to be my one and it was really big.

[Giles]

Cool, I am surprised, but very well done….G
